Defunding doesn't mean strip them of all of their money, it means rob them of their ability to purchase and maintain military equipment. Cops, whether they're street cops, riot cops, or SWAT, actively use military surplus equipment.I'm not 100% sure what defunding the police means on how it could be done, but surely what you really should be asking for is a return of the police pension pots to be redistributed back to the people or other activities?

for how long will they take calls? I'm really curious to hear what these asses will say to answer to all that
At a certain point I'm sure you just mentally check out.How can you sit through this and have your actions dragged out before you by angry citizens and just....not have any reaction? Insane.
He's an 18 year old. I'll cut him some slack
Think they said till 430. Then they're going to break for 'planning' lol
I had no idea about this. Are they archived anywhere you can watch? Would've loved to watch for OKC or Tulsa if they had one.
The video in the OP is so beautiful. It's cathartic. The mainstream media needs to latch onto these kind of sentiments and reinforce us so the politicians might be forced to start enacting change.
Yeah, just glad that an 18 year old was fired up enough to call in and wait on hold to address them. I think that says enough.
Calling in with solutions should be praised not belittled. Was really impressed by the kid despite the trouble with delivery. Would love to see more of that. Both rage and solutions, bring them all.
True I am going to edit my post.
Thanks, appreciate you explaining that as I had no idea. Completely agree but I feel punitive damages should be recovered and the pension fund should be ransacked so minimal support is left.Defunding doesn't mean strip them of all of their money, it means rob them of their ability to purchase and maintain military equipment.

Like I said in the protest thread, the cops rolled up on me at a protest and tried to box me in with one of these, which is entirely unnecessary for anything the cops are going to see sans a terrorist attack. And by time a terror attack is bad enough for these to be used, the military would already be involved.
No worries dude it makes sense, it kind of stands out among the rest for sure haha
I have been watching for the past 45 min and they have not responded once.This is incredible. Have they even responded once or is it just callers going off?
No responses, but a couple of reactions which showed at least some of them are listening.This is incredible. Have they even responded once or is it just callers going off?
